Singapore Mathematics US Edition Kindergarten to Grade 6
We carry Singapore Primary Math U. S. Edition
from Kindergarten to Level 6. There A and B workbooks for each
grade. They are to be used sequentially. In other words, your
student will do the A workbook and textbook for the first part of the level
and then complete the level with the B workbook and textbook.
There are two important choices when you purchase with this
curriculum. Do you want to use the
Answer Book or the Instructor's Guide? The other choice is
How to Place Your Child in
Singapore Math.
You have two choices for finding answers to problems in
Levels 1 to 6. There is no AK or TG is available for the
kindergarten level.
The less expensive choice is to purchase the Primary
Math Answer Key Booklet, either for levels 1 to 3 or for levels 4 to 6. It has
answers to the texts and workbooks for the levels it covers. It has answers only
and no instructions for the teacher.
The other choice we offer is the Singapore Primary Math Home
Instructor's Guides. There is one guide for each level from 1 to 6. It offers
answers and teaching information. While it does not provide daily lessons, it
will give you a suggested amount of time in weeks to spend on each unit. Since
math is highly individualized, this makes sense because it allows your student
to work at his pace.
To sum it up, you do not need both. Your choice is either the less expensive answers only or Home Instructor's Guides that include answers
plus teaching information.
Singapore Math Home Instructor's Guides
Each Home Instructor's Guide ( U.S. and 3rd Ed.) contains:
- Notes to the instructor with some mathematical background
for each section in the textbook;
- Objective of each lesson; teaching activities using manipulatives;
- Reinforcement activities which often include a game;
- Answers to corresponding textbook pages and learning tasks for the
lesson, to be discussed with the student;
- Answers to the corresponding workbook exercises.
If your child is in kindergarten, then start with the Earlybird
Kindergarten Math. If your child is in first grade, then start at Level 1.
For other levels, Placement Tests and Guides can be found at the
publisher's website. You can use this information to place
your child in the Singapore Math program. My suggestion is to purchase one
level at a time as your child progresses through the program at
his pace.
